Overview
James Comey served as FBI Director from 2013 until his firing by President Trump in May 2017. Comey's firing triggered the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Comey's dismissal came after he refused Trump's request for loyalty and his request to drop the investigation into Michael Flynn. Comey documented his interactions with Trump in detailed memos, which were later leaked and formed key evidence in the obstruction investigation.
